Will is a driven student-athlete that gets up everyday at the crack of dawn to do what he loves. He is very accomplished and works hard in everything he does. Will balances cross country, track and field, winter running, and doing full IB. Will would say his biggest academic accomplishment is “balancing full IB and extracurriculars in a healthy way.” Will has qualified for state this year which is his biggest accomplishment in his eyes. He also ran at semi-state this year. This the first time the Varsity boys qualified as a team at Adams since 2003. Right now, Will has multiple full ride scholarships and partial rides as well. Will hopes to attend the University of Colorado Boulder but has applied to many other schools. Majoring in exercise medicine/ sports medicine is his dream. He also hopes to run Cross Country in his time in college.

Will would describe himself as a “goofy and loving person”. No matter how distracted Will gets he always does what is right and does what needs to be done. Will is always focused and can always get whipped back into shape when needed. He will always help his team be the best they can be. He makes sure his team is 100% committed and is doing right by the sport. It is sad to see such a great student and athlete leave John Adams next semester. Will has a bright future ahead of him and John Adams will always be here to support him.
